New Update to ‘Hunt: Showdown’ Includes New Weapons And Fog

Published

on

Crytek have unveiled a new update for Hunt: Showdown, introducing a much-needed environmental enhancement in the form of fog. Instead of some of your missions being bright and clear, there’s a decidedly creepy mist that limits your view distance, and generally makes your hunts that much more tense.

Of course, there are other enhancements, namely the whack of new weapons you’ll have at your disposal, such as multiple crossbows and a Combat Axe. There are also new traits available to players, as well as a Spectator Mode. You can check out the entire update notes on the official site.

Still in Early Access, Hunt: Showdown is available for $29.99USD on Steam.

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
